1T rs HARD to tell what came over
the Republican mem bers OF the Indi-
ana / legislature that they should have
ntered into compromise with the
Democrats that has shorn them OF o
part OF their moral force. Had they
stood out agairsi the offered compro-
mis-, they could have commanded
seventy-aix votes in joint convention,
making J lst the necessary number Of
votes to elect Senator. There is no
doubt that this convention, presided
over By the Republican Lieutenant
Governor elec., would have been recog-
nized by the Senate OF the United
States, as the other SIDE could not mus
ter q majority without seating a Demo-
crat in place of q Republican tina,
would have been In the Rspu blican
jlint convention. BY the com prom ise
the Dem ocrats are enabled to roll 75
votes, within one OF an election, on
every ballot that Is taken. General
Harrison, the Republican candidate,
polls q straight Espu blican votes, while
folr votes are cast regularly for tie

veption the Republicans could com

ing out stronger case for Mr.. Hsines

however, Is no evidence that Haines
will be seated, for when the election OF

that Turkey has no shadow Of right to Q

Last year we sold at retail
about 10000 tooth brushes.
That mears much in two
ways-we can buy on terms
that only such big dealers
can get, and we give you the
benefit o, our cheap buying.
The same principle holds ali
over the Store. That's why
it's such a big Store and all
The time growing; that's why
the Special Sale became
ut cessary to make room for
lnew needs. We sell tooth
brushes or anything else
cheap because we buy them
cheap. When we want
brushes Of Paris make we
send a buyer to Paris and
get them. No profits to
pay to an importer. Here
are three special French
brushes, in assorted styles
and handles. The brush may
be Of different shapes, per.

is the same, all coed bristles.

trunk and ON her kneea holding tho mans
head to her breast She was calling him
fond names and kissing his f0rehead-this
man who . few moments before had figured
tn her mind as an evil pursuing spirit
He was now helpless for good or evil! an
inert mass This innocent n-resistance,
like the feebieness Of infancy, goes most
keenly to woman's heart.
Lets get him into bed" SAID Steve,
whispering, and whitened through all his
auburn touzle by this catastrophe.
But the woman waved him back
Il didn't mean TO-" solemnIy stated the
lone man
"You didn't do II, !" she groaned, rocking
the head on her arm. He would have
killed you il you hadn't turned his pis-
toll oh, it had to come to this-it was com
ing for years-it had to be one of us-and
now wish 1t was myseliv
All of Steve's examination of heart and
pulse and eyeball were of no avail The
man had died instantly. His wife ahrunk
with him from the examining touch. Her
cloak fell to the ground Her beautiful
wild face was pressed against the dead fore
head She shed no teara But Steve turned
his back and stood still He could not en-
dure to look at her
The roar of wind on the hills, and the
snow driving against his fire. suggested to
his mind the necessity of shutting the door.

That winter the humid Pacific climate had
seemed to CONCEAL on the Oregon coast, and
over grass which had been scarcely pow
dered from sight for years, the snow now
stood three feet deep Great drifts bedded
the forests Canyons were half choked,
and singing crystals of snow still flew in
the air
The dim night Landscape swept away in
grandeur; hills massing on hills their
density OF pine verdure only suggested by
contrast with the snow. In summer day
light the lone mans clearing, his smaller
patch of cultivation, his spring OF living
water, and his path threading towards river
landing and post-otfice, might also have
been seen. But all these things were now
Obliterated and the cabin itself, shoulder
ing against the hill, seemed losing its IA
miliar lines under the ceaseless erasure of
the sEow. 1t was indeed a mere pen of
logs, with a chimney butt of rock from the
nearest canyon The lone man in building
had wisely chinked it tight with mud and
moss, and as he had no window and pun
cheon door, he could keep out the frost with
sufficient fuel A little mountain Of stump
roots and logs lay besid, his hearth, and an
immense coal, which had been a section of
tree, made rosy his silent den. His couch,
made of poles, had been drawn across the
earthen floor and placed directly in front OF
the fire 1t was cushioned with skins, and
he had over him the remnants of the best
OvercoaG which he had brought to the State.
A few other garments hung upon pegs on
his log walls His polished gun-casa. sub
stantial leather trunk, and, upon a rough
shelf, some silver spoons, were all the OBJ
jects in his cabin which suggested to the
eye past plenty or former surroundings of
refinement
For the lone man himself was piteous
creature, his feverish face half swallowed in
auburn touzle, his weary and detected eyes
constantly sinking their lids in sick Ian
guor He was young, built with sound
white muscles, a true love of wholesome
outdoor life, and certain practical grasp
and acceptance of existing facts; these
things favored him in his fight with
the wilderness But, on the other hand, he
was unframed and uneducated, had been
the sport of hard fate from his birth, and
lay now half poisoned by sullen detection;
and these things were against him He had
been @Stevie" to partial sisters He had
been Baby" to a mother and family bunch
now long scattered He had been mere
Steve Barrymore here and yonder to q
world which regarded him with perfect in
difference and some contempt And now
he felt as if he were even less than that
poor unit; mass of human nothingness
which Icould only be and ache This lone
man was not apt at putting his emotions
into words He started up once and burst
into tears The tears of an honest human

AN HISTORIC GUN.
The Interesting Story of Heroism Told

The Interesting Story of Heroism Told BY
Precious Relic.
The following inscription is written on
the hack of O looking glass now in the pO<
session of the Woodson family, near Proa
pect, Prince Edward County, Va:
This belonged to Stephen Tarlton, who wa
my greatgrandfatber, and who died in 1887
have had the present frame put to it this 18th
December, 1924. CHARLES WOODsoN.
In the same Woodson family is very
large, lorg aud heavy single-barrel gun,
with flint lock 1t is Of such large dimen-
sions for shoulder-piece that it strikes
every one who sees it with utter astonish
ment It looks as though it were made for
one of the sons of Anak The following 1s
on record in the old family Bible:
John Woodson, son of Robert, married
to Judith Tarlton. was physician He was
killed near his house as he was returning
from visit to a patient ut the second mas
sacre in Virginia The Indians attacked
the house, which was barred against them
and defended by Judith, h s wife, and orc
Lyon, a shoemaker, with long gun. now
my property, which bears his name Uigonl
He killed three Indians the first fire and two
the next, while Judith, the wife. killed two
Indians, who came down the chimney-One
she scalded to death, the other she killed
with the roasting spit When the Indians,
getting alarmed, fled, Lyon fired at them
the third time and killed two more. So
nine Indians were killed and the family
saved by the gallantry of Lyon and Judith"
Now the Judith mentioned here was the
daughter of Stephen Tarlton, who owned
the looking glass. and he died in 1857.
The second massacre was in 1914 From
these dates it is evident that the looking
glass is at least two hundred years Old. and
the long gun. counting from the second
massacre, is two hundred and forty three
